paid a visit to Washington a fow days
citico, and had a long interview with tho
President. Tho Governor and tho Pres
ident aro old friends, and wero Senators
together, and, as tho reoord proves, voted
together in favor of the Crittenden Com
promise and all other publio questions
lending to peaoe. Wo are glad to learn
that Gov. Biglor was cordially reoeived by
President Johnson, and that their riows
harmonized. This is a good omen.

boen giving his evidence before tho oom

testimony the Seoretary and Gen. Hl
leek are aeftuied of some very moan ac
tions. Ex Governor Reynolds, of Illinois,

Cheating the Soldiers.
From tbs Democratic Standard .
Less than six years ago, to havo tho
promise of money from "the government
oftho United Stales," was considered as
boing equivalent to tbo monoy itself.
Tho soldiers of tho regular army signed
their payrolls days and oven weeks before
receiving their money, and thoy did it
willingly,without tho least doubt that "the
Government' would deal honestly with
them, and pay them to tho uttermost
farthing ; and thoy wero not disappoint
ed. Bntsinco tho present War Department
has been in power, this rulo has been re
versed, and when a man now enlists as a
soldier, he must expect to be ohca'ed in
overy possiblo way.
Tho first thing dono in this lino by
Stanton 3 Co., was to rcfuso to givo to the
five-year regulars the warrants for tho
bounty lands to whioh tiiey wero entitled
For many years the rulo had been that
any soldier who had been in aotipn while
in the service of the United States, should
reocivo a warrant for 160 acres of land.
Bat when Stanton and his baokers, the
Abolition Congressmen, gave 8100 bounty
to throe year regulars, tboy made this act
an excuse for depriving all those regulars
who had enlisted prior to August, 1861, of
tho bounty lands whioh they were prom
bed at tho timo of their enlistment. The
five-yoar regulars, somo of whom havo
Bhed their blood upon ovory battle field of
,mportauoe during tho war, novcr received
aDy bounty, not even the carrison f p.,-,
Sumter.
DuriDg the last three years, tbo unfair,
dealing on the part of the War Depart
ment has beon so notorious as to create as
much dissatisfaction atuong.t the soldiers,"
and oauso many desertions. Men who
had been disabled by wounds or siokness,
with dependent, upon, thorn, wore put iDto
tho Invalid Corps against thoir will, and
not paid for a year or fourteen months ot
a time, whilo contractors and shoulder
strapped loafers about Washington obtain
ed their monoy without difficulty.
Tho latest cheating dodge is tho deduc
tion of part of the promised bounty of tho
one-year men. This caps tho climax of
meanness. For a War Doportment which
expended over 8300,000 during the first
year oftho war for those worse than use
less articles, brass Bhouldorsoales,and we
know not how much more for the equally
usoless loalher stooks, lo oommenoo re
trenobment now by depriving our gallant
soldiers of part their hardoarned money,
is an aot unworthy of any official pretend
ing to represent this great and generous
nation.
The man who took his life in his hand
and wcut forth to suffer, and starvo, and
toil, and face tho deadly bullets of the
fiercest fighters tho world ever saw, in do
fenso of our notional life, is worthy of all
that was ever promised to him, and as
much moro as a grateful nation can be
stow. It is arguod that these mon did not serve
out the year. A poor excuse, that. I If

Kltbmuiid Republic, May 16
During tho past week, about two hun
dred negroes, of all ages aud sexis, have
congregated on a lot near Baoon's Quarter
Uranoh. Fifty ot these aro ohildren, un
der twelve years of agj. They aro from
tho Counties of Gooohland, Fluvanna and
Lou'ua. They will soon learn that, hay
ing loft a cert.in livelihood at home, they
will havo to toil hard and constantly to
make a living in this now over-crowded
"city. Ooo of them a nearly grown man,
offored ycstcrday,lo hiro himself to a gen
tleman in that vicinity for tho moderate
sum of twclvo dollars per annum.
On Saturday night a negro woman and
four ohildren formerly the property of Dr
Skclton of Powhatan, reached the city
after a threo day', walk in search of ease,
plenty , and nothing to do,whieh,ljf course,
they did not Eod. After wandering abuut
during the night, they were, on Monday
morning fed by a relative of their former
master. Oo tho route they wero robbed
of tbeit little stock of monoy by etrsggl
tug soldiers.

counties crowded into the place under sun
dry dolusioun, from which they havo boon

The Negro's Paradise.
rtlsnbuig Daily Keaa, May 16.
For the last few days a tide of negro
women and ohildren, obviously from tbo
rural districts, has been pouring into town.
This is in the face of tho avowed polioy
of tho military authorities, who desire to
keep this population, as far a. practicable,
at home, it being the uniform experience
of tho Federal officers who bavo had to
administer civil rule that this class ia a
dead charge on tbo United States oommis
sariat, wherevor they aro allowed to con
gregate in towns. Persons who havo re
cently arrived thero by rail from Gold3
boro infoim na that the line of the roud U
.filled with them throughout ils whole ex
tent, all waiting to come to town it be
ing their most definite idea of Paradise
to visit a city.

The military authorities aro requiring

negroos claiming to bo freo, and looking
to the military authorities for assUtanoo ;
I that tboy wero crowded and herded to-
&tlUt a"d oonseqaontly there was
I danger of small-pox and other cpedemlcs.
They asked, therefore, that tho laws of
vagranoy should bo enforced ; that the
negroes shall bo sent back to tho parts of
States where thoy probably bolonged,and
that matters bo lorbiddcu to perlnit their
slaves to hire thoir own time.
The Gen. replied, admitting the evil,
but reminded tbo officials that tho negroes
wore not properly vagrants ; that many
of them, if not all, wero freo, by being
the wives and ohildren of soldiers, or for
other reasons ; that recent events have
disturbed if uol ohanged. tho relations of
servants and masters , that they woro na
lives, for tho most part, of Kentucky ;
had the same local attachments as whiles,
and had a right to scok for labor wbcro it
could bo found. Ho censured tho cowar
dioe of steamboat and forry owners, vho
out of fear of obsolcto aud inapplicable
laws, would not transport freo persons of
oolor across the Ohio, and thus helped tbo
ovor supply and stagnation of labor at
Louisvillo aud other places. Ho has,
thcrofore, issued an ordor advuing those
colored persons who caunot find work in
Louisville, to go elrcwbcrc in search of it
To cnablo them to do so, tho ProvoHt
Marshal of tho post of Louisville, upon
tho application of any colored person who
may report him or iiemlf as unahlu to
find sufficient employment in this city,
will issue passes lo nil colored porsous aud
their families, specifying tho number of
persons to be passed, and their names,
and the point to nhiuh thoy want to go to
lug-ign in or iu scaroli of employment.
Tho order reads :
"Any oonduotor or mauager of any rail
road, steamboat, ferryboat,or other means
of travel, who shall refuse, upon tho ten
der of tho legal faro, to soil to uuy such
person oamcd in any such pass tho usual
traus'poitation ticket, or bhall refuse to'
trnmport any persou, will bo ot ouoo or
rotted, and sent out of tho department, or
puoished as a military court may ad
judge."
Tho Louisvillo Journal of Monday,
says :
"Tho negro population of this place
will soon dwindle down to a few, if they
continue to havo the oily as thoy havo
done within tho last day or to. Up lo
thmo o'clock yestorday afternoon, tho
oleik has issued one hundred and thirteen
passeD to negroes who dceiru to loavo tho
oity, used up all bis blaoks,and was com
pelled to 'oloso up' shop."
A Singular Present.
Tho negroos at Norfolk and Fortress
Monroo hovi purchased a sword, whioh
ia to be presented to Ben Butler. This is
an idea whioh could only have originated
under tho wool of a darkey. Presenting
Butler with a sword is about equal to mak
ing a pig a present of a pooket-haukcr-oheicf,for
one is about as likely to bo prop
erly used as the other.
It would bo much moro appropriate to
make Butler a prcsout of a sale, in whioh
to store the gold he stole at New Orleans.
If ho bad his deserts, ho would receive tho
present of a rope.as a reward for his "pa
triotio services" in filling his own pookets
by plundering friend and foe. If he should
ever fall into tho power of somo of tho
whito private soldiers who have suffered
from his tyranny, inoompotencs and cow
ardioe, he will bo mote likely to need a
pair of crutohes or a coffin than a sword,
which is an article that he has neither
courage enough to uso, nor sense enough
to let alone. Democratic SUuxdatd.

to bo good, lot in tako a lgit course and

The supposed or aotual violation of law
by ono man does not justify another in
doing an illegal act, although this is fre
quently plead in palliation of a crime.
But tho plea is not a good one. No mat
ter who Mr. i.inooln was, nor what ho
had done, it was unlawful aud wicked to
murder him. Booth deserved tu bo arrcs
ted and punwhed according to law, and I
am sorry thai tho ciroumstances were such i
this could not havo been the caso. Then 1
I thiuk wo should havo had him, and
doubtless all others who woro engaged
with him in iho dreadful deod,indictod by
a Grand Jury and tried by their Pcors
before a Civil Ouuut, which I think l
the proper, the lawful course to try, and
dfcposo of all mattors not strictly military.
Booth's was an awful, a bold and out
ragcous act, but let me inquira what biltci
spirit did the Mobs in Philadelphia mani
list in tho recent assaults upon tho Ixcieii
solls! loan ace no difference. It was
the very same t-pirit, but if possible more
mean And cowardly. Ag;iu, what better
was tho spirit and remark touching this
subject, of Mr. Lind, l'rosident of one
branch of tho City Council I To mo, it
appears that the nubs which destroyed
printing presses in California, and at Ports
mouth, N. II,, and that hung men in In
diana, and olhcr places, as soon as they
heard of Booth's woeful crime, havo thus
proven themselves to be no better than
he. Had thoy tho couroga and rpirit tbo
havo manifested in tho uulawful proceed
ings just referred to in tho same drgrce,
they would do just as ho did to accomplish
thoir hellish purposes. AH this is wroug
and de.'purntoly wiekud anil should be
condomued in tho (trougoiit terms by tin
Pres-, the Pulpit, and law-abiding people
everywhere, and of all Political and Re

It is presumed thnt all intelligent men

justifiable in violating tho law. If it u
believed any ono has done so, let liiin b
arrested by legal process j our Courts are

or we are a doomed Natiou. I make those
